When to Hire an Attorney

At what point in time should you hire an attorney? It's not always necessary to hire an attorney immediately. Go through treatment, see if you get better, negotiate with the insurance adjuster, and then give an attorney a call to discuss. In other cases it's imperative to get a lawyer right away; for example a car accident case. Most importantly ask - do we need to hire an attorney? If you are unsure of whether or not to hire somebody, call us today and we'll give you the simple answer. 1.800.497.1755

Calbom & Schwab Law Group, PLLC was founded over 60 years ago to meet the needs of injured and disabled individuals throughout the state of Washington. Our attorneys work very hard at recovering damages and securing disability benefits for our clients, providing ethical and dependable legal counsel that the community has come to expect from us.

Our firm primarily handles three distinct types of cases:

Personal Injury – If you suffered an injury because of another party’s negligence, then you may have a personal injury case. Examples of circumstances that might warrant a personal injury claim include traffic accidents, slip and fall accidents, dog attacks, medical mistakes, and defective product injuries. When you are hurt or you loved one is killed and another person or business is at fault, Calbom & Schwab Law Group, PLLC can help you hold that party legally responsible for your losses and help you secure a settlement.

Workers' Compensation – Our firm handles even the most difficult workers’ compensation claims. Workers’ compensation is meant to be a relatively open-and-shut way for workers to get income replacement benefits and medical benefits when they’ve been injured on the job. Unfortunately, insurers often dispute the claims or prematurely cease benefits. Our workers’ compensation team can help injured employees pursue the benefits to which they’re entitled – in the full, rightful amount and for the full, rightful duration.

Social Security Disability – If you're permanently disabled or will be unable to return to work for an extended period of time, you might be entitled to Social Security disability benefits. The Social Security Administration requires substantial proof of disability in order to grant benefits, as well as a certain amount of work credits or income/asset requirements. Many claims are initially denied. Calbom & Schwab Law Group, PLLC can help clients with their Social Security disability claims at any stage of the process, and help you secure the benefits you and your family need.
